What is this bumper? and oil thermostat? how to mount it?
Can someone tell me what front bumper, or better yet, what body kit this is? i super jelly on this and want to source it out.
also
im doing a dual oil cooler setup and people mount the thermostat in different places. Would it be better to mount it so that if it opens, it flows through both oil coolers?
or
mount it so that when it opens, it flows through one and is always flowing through the other?
25row coolers.
Thanks!

As far as thermostat mounting, you can mount it to the motor with a bracket, or mount it on the frame rail etc with a little slack to account for engine movement.
As far as oil flow, yes it must be sealed off from the coolers until the oil reaches the proper temp. The oil flow originates at the front cover and returns to the oil filter pedestal. If you're using the mocal thermostat (very reliable, and the most popular choice for aftermarket cooler setups) you'll want the black bolts facing the driver side frame rail. The two -10 connections facing rearward go to the front cover and oil pedestal (direct path from the front cover to the oil pedestal when the thermostat is closed), and the two front facing -10 connections go to the coolers (when the thermostat is opened the internal valve moves to divert the oil flow in a "U" from the front cover, to the coolers, return from the coolers, and out to the filter pedestal.

Looks like my car! White with the full gtc kit, but I have mazdaspeed rims on mine. The front bumper doesn't look good without the light covers. There was a site that made replicas covers but I can't find that site anymore. You can get the real one from RHDJapan for $360 I think.
